Unstable's current XFree (4.2.1.1) "RENDER" extension (used for anti-aliasing IIRC) takes a _lot_ of colors for it's own (rumors I heared talked about > 200 IIRC) so generally, you won't be left with a useable X in unstable (because with 8bit depth, there's only a hand full of remaining colors available at all:) Later X versions allow you to kill the RENDER extension so you'll get your colors back. But until then...
